Chapter 62: Seeing the Old Things Seems to Be Old Friends
"Hahahaha......"
I saw an old man with black hair and silver beard striding towards them with a green stick.
There are many living and dead people that Hua Qiao has seen, but he has never seen such a strange person, whose hair is not gray and whose beard is white first.
The strange old man walked to the little beggar and stopped, touched his silver beard and said with a smile: "Wang Haozi, you have a good life, but you are bullying my junior, do you think that Yangzhou is not comfortable and want to live in a different place?" ”
"It turned out to be Xu Jiugong! Unexpectedly, your internal strength has improved again, and you have begun to rejuvenate? ”
"Where, two days ago, I had a terrible fever and accidentally burned my hair, but fortunately, I always salivated a lot, and I saved a white beard." Xu Jiugong grabbed Xiao Yuhua's wrist and shook it, and said with a smile: "The muscles and bones are good, you are a good seedling, you will follow me in the future, whoever dares to bully you again, you will report the name of the master!" ”
Xiao Yuhua naturally knew that this was Xu Jiugong, the leader of their Northern Beggar Gang, and Jiugong was going to accept himself as an apprentice! I don't know if it's because the ancestral grave where I don't know where I was buried is smoking, so I got this great luck. Xiao Hua was overjoyed, and quickly knelt down and kowtowed to Xu Jiugong three times.
Xu Jiugong glanced at the hairpin on the flower buckwheat bun, then looked at the flower buckwheat carefully and said, "Liu Yunniang is okay?" Since she gave you the green hosta, didn't she tell you that this is a token of the old flower? Seeing this green hosta, all walks of life in the rivers and lakes will give the old man a little thin noodles...... However, I see that the secret weapon you used just now is very powerful, and it is more than enough for self-protection......"
Wang Haozi sighed to himself, although there are many people on his side, even if he besieges, he may not be Xu Jiugong's opponent, not to mention that the other party has a girl who can thunderbolt? He didn't wait for anyone to send it, commanded his own people, and slipped silently carrying the bucktooth of a broken "leg".
Hua Qiao touched the green hosta on her head, it was indeed what A-Niang gave her before she went out, and explained to her that no matter where she went, she must remember to wear the hairpin on her head. She looked at the old man Hanako who came out of nowhere and called her mother's name by name.
"What? Isn't your mother's name Liu Yunniang? Xu Jiugong used the green jade staff in his hand and shook it in front of the stunned buckwheat. Hua Qiao came back to her senses, huh? Her green hosta really looks like a miniature version of this green jade staff!
"Yes, it's called Liu Yunniang."
"Are you sixteen years old?"
"I'm ...... Sixteen years old. ”
"Isn't that the end of it? Go back and ask your mother, is there an old man named Xu Jiugong. Xu Jiugong smiled and asked again: "You didn't use a thunderbolt just now, the explosion is not powerful, what is powerful is a stone, right?" ”
In front of the master, Hua Qiao had nothing to hide, so he nodded.
Xu Jiugong squinted his eyes and looked at the two flowers, and said to himself: "Like, like the people of his family!" By the way, what's your name now? ”
"Me? I am and used to be called buckwheat. "Hua Qiao is a little strange, her name was taken by Daddy, and she has never changed it.
"Oh, buckwheat, do you have any silver?" Xu Jiugong's eyes narrowed even more.
"Yes, ten taels."
Tao Qingyu next to him was really anxious: Is there such a stupid person as you? I only asked you if you had any money, but you even took out the old bottom!
"Haha, it's good to have it, if the 'wine' man doesn't drink again, he will have to be the 'water' man. Let's go, let's get a drink! Boy, what's your name? Xu Jiugong looked at the little screaming flower who was following behind and asked.
"Master, do you ask me? My name is Lu Ping. ”
"Lu Ping? The road is smooth, and the shoes are not easy to break. Lu Ping, ask the girl for silver, two roast chickens, five catties of beef, and a pot of good wine, go and come back quickly, the master is waiting for you here. ”
"Why don't you eat at the store? There is a restaurant in front of it. Hua Qiao asked strangely while taking out the silver to Lu Ping.
"Oh, you don't know, Hanako can't go into the store to drink and eat, this is the rule of the sect. However, it is not the same when you buy it to eat and drink! Xu Jiugong touched his stomach and said, "It's been a long time since I sacrificed to the Five Organs Temple, thanks to the fact that I recognized the hairpin on your head." By the way, buckwheat, why are you two big girls wandering around the street? Did you move to Yangzhou? ”
Hua Qiao shook her head and briefly said the matter of coming from Baoying to handle the case, but only said the section on murder and absconding.
"You mean, Chen Xuan of Wutong Academy has been killing someone and escaping for a few days, and he has never been found?" Xu Jiugong touched his white beard and said with a smile: "What's so difficult about this?" Do you know what the beggars are called on the rivers and lakes? Guess you can't guess, hey, tell you directly, it's called 'Bao Inquire'. ”
"Isn't Bao asking about rats?" Qing Yu couldn't help but interject.
"Hey! That's right! We are like rats, everywhere. Xu Jiugong didn't mind calling himself a mouse: "For the sake of you being an old man, I'll help you with the old man." ”
"After the deceased? Do you know my grandfather? "The buckwheat is a little curious.
"What? Your mother didn't tell you this? I won't talk about the old name Hanako, just keep your mother and tell you! Xu Jiucheng said, and Lu Ping came back with wine and food. He returned the rest of the silver to Hua Qiao, and handed the wine and food to Xu Jiugong.
Xu Jiugong handed him back a roast chicken and explained: "This roast chicken is left for you, you go to the City God Temple now, tell Elder Chen, and tell them to go to the gentleman of Wutong Academy, named Chen Xuan, and come and report it immediately." ”
Lu Ping scratched his head and said, "Master, if you don't give me any tokens, or Elder Chen won't believe me." ”
"What token can the old flower have? If only it were this dog-beating stick! You wait...... Xu Jiugong reached into his clothes and rubbed it, rubbed out a mud ball, handed it to Lu Pingdao: "Take this, he will know at a glance, I said it." ”
Hua Qiao and Tao Qingyu both lowered their heads and held back a smile: Dare to love this old mud ball, and it is also the unique mark of this old flower?
Xu Jiugong sat on the side of the road eating roast chicken and drinking, and when the last few pieces of beef also entered his Five Organs Temple, Lu Ping ran back panting: "Master! Master! ”
"I'm not deaf, what are you doing so loudly?" Xu Jiugong clapped his hands and stretched.
"Master, someone found one, but it's ......"
"But what? Babbling, like a. ”
"However, I don't know if it's Chen Xuan."
"Isn't there a portrait? Even if the portrait is not like it, there are so many people in Wutong Academy, and there are so many people in Hangzhou City who have seen him, can he be said that he is not like a big living person, isn't it? Joke! Xu Jiugong put his hands behind his back, turned to Hua Qiao and said, "You take Lu Ping to tell your senior brother that the person has been found, see how he catches it." ”
Hua Qiao nodded hurriedly.
Lu Ping said to Hua Qiao a little helplessly: "I'll take you there, Elder Chen and Elder An are watching over there, people can't run away, but he has been disfigured, and no one can recognize him." Everyone also looked for a lot of clues to find this person......"
Xu Jiugong's eyes widened and he shouted:
"Ruthless! Disfigured! ”
